Fall Service Projects

Pie in the Sky

Update: Sign-ups are full. If you were able to sign up, please let us know so we can meet up at the event!

Community Servings holds a huge fundraiser every year, selling pies during the Thanksgiving season. All the pies are donated and they sell and distribute the pies all around the area. They need volunteers to sort, label, and box pies. I helped last year and it was wicked fun! They also provide lots of snacks (including pie!) for volunteers. You must sign up individually at the following link: http://www.pieinthesky.org/event/pies/opportunity.cfm?ID=1256

We will be sorting, folding and organizing donation items at Room to Grow. Room to Grow is dedicated to enriching the lives of babies born into poverty throughout their critical first three years of development. Parents are referred to Room to Grow by a network of prenatal programs assisting low-income families. Upon their referral, families visit Room to Grow’s warm and inviting space once every three months from just before the birth of the baby until their child turns three. Please contact GBYPKiwanis@gmail.com with any questions.

At this meeting, we will be collecting new KIDS SOCKS for the DCF Kids Fund (http://dcfkidsfund.org/) which provides supplies and learning opportunities for kids in foster care. Please consider donating some socks at the next meeting!
